What is the designed use for a center punch?
Answer Start holes in metal
In theory, a center punch is used to start holes in metal. However, this tool is so much more useful than that. You can use it to tighten a loose handle on a shovel, hammer or knife, use it as a pencil in a pinch or countersink a large nail head with it.
